Maps from logbook data

This map displays voyage location information from the AOWL database that combines logbook data from the Maury, Townsend and Census of Marine Life logbook projects. Depending on the original source, the data may include locations for all log entries or only for days when whales were sighted or struck.

Links across the top of the map will take you to this voyage in the Voyage database and to a Crew list if it is available. There is also a link to this voyage’s location information in the AOWL logbook database, where you can view it in tabular form.
